| contents | Internal Mobility in Mexico as a Trigger for International Migration Eréndira Yaretni Mendoza-Meza Arturo Torres-Mendoza Yamile Rangel-Martínez Luis Alberto Quezada-Téllez Demografía nodal zones spatial dynamics Development poles internal mobility gravitational models This article analyzes how internal mobility in Mexico —viewed through a gravitational model— can act as a precursor to international migration, while also revealing the shifting dynamics of regional development. In the context of accelerated population growth and increasing pressure on public services, identifying development poles and nodal zones becomes essential for designing effective metropolitan and regional strategies. This study applies a gravitational model from a territorial perspective, combining population data and inter-entity distances to estimate migratory potential and labor pressure among Mexico’s 32 federal entities. The findings show that, contrary to traditional assumptions, central states no longer concentrate the highest migratory attraction; instead, peripheral or intermediate municipalities are emerging as new poles of development. This suggests a reconfiguration of territorial dynamics, requiring a reassessment of where growth is occurring and how to manage it sustainably. The results contribute to a deeper understanding of internal migration patterns and their potential to escalate into international migration under conditions of persistent regional inequality. 2026 artículo científico 1405-7425 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=11282998005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11282998005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11282998005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11282998005/11282998005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/112/11282998005/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=112 Papeles de Población application/pdf Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México Papeles de Población (México) Num.121 Vol.32 |
